    How do I get rid of excess HG sealant?

    My husband sealed our porcelain tiles with HG porcelain tile sealer, but didn't buff off the excess as per directions. They now have this layer on them, which dirt sticks to like glue! It's hideous trying to clean them. Any ideas what will get it off?! Thanks
